Family owned business, very efficient service and great food for a fair price. When you want chinese food without all the dazzle, Dragon Phoenix is a place I'd recommend.

This review is for Bennettswood Design Jewellers, Burwood VIC

verified email - 08 Jan 2015

It was close to Christmas and I didn't want to fight the crowds at the shopping centres when all I wanted was my watch battery replaced. For years I'd had them changed at the shoe places, you know the ones I mean. This small jewellers was close to where I lived so I popped in was warmly greeted and after inspection of my watch was told it must have been a bit of dust or something and I didn't even need a new battery. No charge. Now I know (and you know) if I'd taken it to the "shoe place" they would've just changed it and charged me. Have since returned to have my fathers old watch restored. Highly recommend.

This review is for Nando's, Burwood East VIC

There's no denying, Nando's do great chicken. I've always enjoyed the flavours and the option for extra spice, but there is definitely room for improvement when it comes to service. With the prices they charge - Nando's is expenensive when compared to other take away options, and I am okay with paying extra for good food, but I expect top notch service to accompany my meal.

Had lunch at Churchill's today. Staff were great, very friendly. And though we only had toasted sandwiches and coffee, can recommend Churchill's as a nice place to stop for a meal while shopping at this small but lovely group of shops.

Always our first choice for pizza in take-away night, and on several occasions we've had family dinners in the cosy dine-in area. The staff are always friendly and welcoming and besides making great pizzas there's a lot more on the menu and they're licensed. Highly recommended.

This review is for Music Junction, Hawthorn East VIC

I'm always made to feel very welcome when I visit Music Junction, the staff are never pushy but always available to help. I've purchased two guitars from them, also took a very old mandolin to them for repair which is now restored and sounding beautiful. They have a large range of instruments and accessories, I highly recommend them.

This review is for Hungry Jacks, Burwood VIC

verified email - 28 Jul 2014

Was not pleased with my experience at Hungry Jack's the other day. The store was not overly busy - no queues, and plenty of free tables - yet the amount of litter left on tables was very unpleasant. Staff were obviously bored with their jobs and wanted to be somewhere else, and after my visit I'll go somewhere else!

This review is for Zinc, Camberwell VIC

What a brilliant store! It's my first stop when I'm looking for a unique and special gift for someone. An amazing array of giftware, more than you could imagine. Not cheap, but worth the cost. Staff are very friendly and they'll gift wrap your purchase.

Always our first choice for pizza, staff are very friendly and have accommodated us on many family dinners in their small and cosy dining in area. Lots of variety on their menu besides pizza, and are also licensed. Highly recommended.
